Get the Photos You Really Want…. Albany, NY High School Senior Photographer
 
 
Spring of High School Seniors  and Juniors is an exciting time.  The Seniors are wrapping up their last year, and preparing to head off to college in the fall.  Juniors are looking forward to be in that “Senior” class!  Most people can probably look back with great memories from this point in their lives.  So much is happening, many transitions – and really discovering who you are. Custom Senior portraits are
a fabulous way to memorialize this stage!  A handful of students from high schools in and around the Albany, NY area have participated in my Photo Rep Program for Senior Portraits.  The biggest goal of these sessions is to show students and families what senior portraits really can be!  Multiple locations, clothing changes, incorporation of interests, sports, hobbies – all elements that create a collection of images showcasing students at this very point in their lives.  You just can not get that with 10 minutes in a studio, wearing the same thing all of your other classmates have worn!!  Celebrate this time in your life, or your child’s life.  You’ll be glad you did…. 
Inquire today about scheduling a Custom Senior Portrait Session.

The 2010 High School Senior Photo Rep. program is off and running!  I have a handful of students that are eager to participate this year.  These are some of my favorite sessions to shoot   The last few years of High School are such great times in a student’s life!  I really love working with them, and helping them capture their interests, hobbies, and personal style – agh!  I honestly can not wait to dive into this next month!   If you read my blog – you’ve heard me chat about this before.  Too many school in this area require students to sit for the cookie-cutter, black drape, shirt and tie boring pictures.  Some even will not list them alphabetically or at all if they submit a photo from an outside studio….WHY?   My opinion …convenience – it would be very easy for a yearbook staff to upload a disc from one studio – already alphabetized etc.  My favorite response….. “Let your Yearbook picture be your Yearbook picture – Let your Senior Portraits be YOU!” If the schools are going to be rigid, so be it.  There’s no reason you need to purchase anything from them, or give that image out to friends/family!  Play the game, sit for 5 minutes, pick a yearbook photo, and book a Unique Session with me to celebrate this great time in your life or your child’s life!  Enough said!  LOL

*Distribute 50 Rep. Cards to friends/family

NO CATCH!    Her daughter is a 2010 Rep!

No surprise that I love photographing HS Juniors/Seniors – especially when they want to incorporate their hobbies or sport interests! She’s been playing lax for a long time – and from what I hear…. is quite good! It’s always impressive to me to see students in the many “looks” of them. Granted her hair isn’t pulled up, and she’ wearing makeup in her Lax shots – but I have a soft spot for athlete’s!!!

I personally started playing sports at the age of 7. Softball was the thing until I got into Junior High. I ended up sticking with Softball and quickly feel in love with Field Hockey. Although I found Softball easier – that’s not where my passion was. I played Field Hockey through 3 years of College. I always found myself cracking up when people would say… “You don’t look like a Field Hockey chick….” and honestly I think I looked quite different on the field than I did off! Game Face on – watch out!

 It was a bit chilly this day – so you can really appreciate her willingness to fully suit up and endure the cold to get the shots we wanted!!! If you can’t quite figure it out, the photo with her eye, is through the netting of her stick. She loved it, as well as her mom when I showed it to them in camera. I was thrilled that the edginess was appreciated. By incorporated sports, or other hobbies/interests – students really walk away with a great collection of images that really celebrate who they are in their last year of High School.

As 2009 has begun, so has my search for Senior Portrait Rep’s!!! I’m looking for HS Jr.’s to work with me in my photo. rep. program. This branch of my photography started last year – as I kept hearing parents and students complain about their Senior Portraits….well who could blame them when you get 15 minutes in a studio, wearing the same thing as every other student! I grew up in Rochester, and although I did go to a studio for my Senior Portraits, I was able to bring multiple changes of clothes, my siblings, and even my dog! I remember it took a bit for me to relax…but as I changed into “my” day to day clothes, and had elements of “my” day to day life in the pictures – I looked more like me!

That’s what I want to give HS kids in this area! The opportunity to have Senior Portraits that they love, that they feel capture them, their spirits, their personalities, their hobbies and interests.

I worked with 6 students last year in my photo rep. program. And I proudly say, their images were fabulous! Guy, girl…didn’t matter. We laughed – tried funky things and rustic settings – and walked away with stunning portraits! Unique, edgy, personal…you name it – they got it!

So, the search begins again – with even more enthusiasm this year. I can’t wait to get rollin’

If you’re a Junior, or know one – take a look at the HS Senior link on the right. The 6 rep. sessions from last year are there to preview. There are so many perks to being a rep. – starting with getting your 2 hr. onlocation session for free! Drop me a line or give a call to inquire further!
